Jesus buddy was that from kiting, too much sun exposure? Or somehting else? Agree with Dave, ya eye is more important now, plenty of wind To come and other seasons.

Well
diff to see from picture alone but it looks like typical sub conjunctival haemorrhage and if that the case has nothing to do with retina detachment.
Obviously we can not see retinal pituctre here so you might as well have bleed there
who told you to keep of the water, maybe get second option,

burst blood vessel on the sclera (white area)

did they look at the back of the eye itself?
good optometrist can do that for you with out need to see eye specialist
